    How Highly Effective People Speak

    How High Performers Use Psychology to Influence With Ease

    Peter Andrei

    Effective communication, according to Peter D. Andrei, is more of a science than most people think. Persuasive speech is a complex craft that can be studied and learned, and its strategies can be broken down and used by anyone. In How Highly Effective People Speak, he shares the basic strategies of powerful communication, teaching you how to speak with eloquence and persuasion by tapping into patterns of thinking that affect human behavior and perception.

    In our guide, we’ll examine Andrei’s argument that if you understand cognitive biases (how people tend to receive information and make decisions), you can convey your message in the most efficient and effective way possible. To do this, we’ll explore some of the most powerful and influential biases you can use to make your communication more persuasive. Then, we’ll explain Andrei’s strategies and how to practice them, and we’ll compare them to those of other communication experts.

    Break Through Obstacles to Learning and Discover Your Hidden Potential

    Barbara Oakley

    Whether you’re unhappy at work, interested in another field, or worried your job will become obsolete, it’s never too late to make a career change. Barbara Oakley asserts that whatever your age or occupation, you can have a mindshift, which means opening up new opportunities through transformative learning. In Mindshift, she writes that it’s possible to overcome perceived barriers—such as age, imposter syndrome, or a lack of money—and gain new skills so you can reinvent yourself.

    Oakley is proof that it’s possible to make a big change and flourish despite presumed weaknesses. She grew up thinking she was bad at math and science but developed a passion for those subjects later in life, obtaining a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering.

    In this guide, we’ll discuss why it’s important to have a mindshift in the modern world. Then we’ll outline Oakley’s strategies for overcoming perceived limitations so that you can have your own mindshift. We’ll also supplement Oakley’s ideas with other experts’ tips for supercharging your learning and maximizing your potential.

  • Think Big Take Small Steps and Build the Future You Want Grace Lordan

    Think Big

    Take Small Steps and Build the Future You Want

    Grace Lordan

    What’s the key to transforming your life?

    In Think Big, behavioral science expert Grace Lordan argues that most of us fail to transform our lives because we try to change too much too quickly. Instead, we must set a big goal, acknowledge that achieving it will take a few years, and then take the regular, small steps necessary to achieve it. Moreover, we must understand how to overcome the cognitive biases—the mental shortcuts that all humans take—that hinder us from achieving our goals.

    In this guide, we’ll first define what cognitive biases are and how your own (and others’) affect your life. Then, we’ll share Lordan’s advice on changing your life by identifying who you want to become, and how to recognize and work around both your cognitive biases and external obstacles. Along the way, we’ll share other experts’ tips on working around your cognitive biases so you can transform your life.

  • The Third Door The Wild Quest to Uncover How the World's Most Successful People Launched Their Careers Alex Banayan

    The Third Door

    The Wild Quest to Uncover How the World's Most Successful People Launched Their Careers

    Alex Banayan

    Alex Banayan writes that success is like a nightclub with three doors: The first is the main entrance, through which you enter by working hard and playing by the rules. The line to this door is crowded and moves slowly. The second door is reserved for billionaires and celebrities and is off-limits to ordinary people. In The Third Door, he focuses on the last option—the door that allows regular folk to skip the line, find hidden opportunities, and think outside the box. He argues it’s the best—and really, only—route to getting ahead of the crowd.

    Banayan interviews successful people from a wide range of fields to discover what insights, tricks, and motivations helped them find their unique paths to success. In this guide, we’ll review major themes he came across in his interviews, and we’ll explore how the insights he gleaned compare to theories of success from other thinkers.
